    Hey guys check out this vid, i may have found the culprit that slows my internet. Ive seen maany threads that the default wlan card which is the killer wireless has many bugs. But it seems that some of our wireless peripherals have huge effect on the speed of our internet connection



    Let me know your thoughts, do we have the same situation? I may just switch to wired

    Use a different USB port. Someone had problems with the left port with the Logitech G900 wireless receiver dropping out and lagging when using Wifi, but had no problems with the right side USB port. I had no such problems with an Intel 8265. Can't speak for the Killer, though.

    Specific USB ports can make a difference. I have my Logitech G602 mouse and G213 keyboard plugged into a powered hub. Whenever I connected another device to it, the mouse would start to behave erratically. Instead of having the receiver plugged directly into the hub, I used the extension cable that was in the box to move it closer to the mouse, and it works fine now.
